This is a warm and welcome story for the streesed out people out there, that feels life is like being tucked in a box , being slammed with a bat out of hell. A flee from the gomorian life they call civiliced, just let loose of everything and save yourself by traveling to a place that nobody else sees, to rest and reset mind and body.
A multilingual european story that takes place at the coast of croatia in the windy season of the adriatic, opens new doors to love and ...comedy. Its a story thats loosly inspired from other lovestories made films about but this one is special. And that is basicly due to a lovely chosen cast and a very well done filmography. The main caracter is a real OI OI OI by the looks, just like the one i have on my right hand side everyday, so a refreshment for the male viewer it might be...
its all in all a throw your life over the fence and start a new one somewhere else, made in a sound of sweet reataliation and revenge, liebst du mich nicht dann steh weg. A lovely and charming story of sunset love, a must see for every romantic out there. A recommend from the grumpy old man.

This movie is so fresh and cute just real, plus funny.
The actors are great, the story is familiar but still different.
I like that it is a romance about 40+ people and is just so Croatian with jokes and the way Bogdan, as Josip behaves it is so typical but in a good way. The island is, of course, beautiful; colors, people, food, flowers and the atmosphere is very island-like.
It is just feel good, relax and have a good time movie with very good actors.
I gave it 10 because as a Croatian I'm very happy with this movie's representation of people and land usually is just klishes used for all East European countries but not this movie. Go check it out!

So first off, I'm a guy. Not going to sit for any sappy silly nonsense.
So when is a rom-com not a rom-com? When there's great acting, great script, great story line, great humor, and true heart felt moments. It just goes to show how good films can be without all the formulaic drivel that is churned out year after year. This was a film where you felt for the characters, you were engrossed in the story, and as my wife said, "I didn't want it to end". Agreed. We wished it was longer with MORE humor, more plot twists, and simply more good filmmaking. Message to hollywood: take notes and make better films!

The story is cute, the views are absolutely wonderful, but what I really loved about this movie was that they took a real woman to play the role, not trying to look younger or perfect, just a normal woman showing a normal body and her wrinkes. It makes women like her, to feel good about theirselves and believe that they are also worth of having a new love story in their lives.
The actor is very charming but also not perfect, has a beer belly which for most of women is not important. Usually the men are the ones who want perfect look women.
The soundtrack is also very nice. The movie has some funny parts that will make you laugh.

It's a mature woman's discovery of her maternal ties and herself. It feels somewhat like a mix of Mamma Mia 2 and Eat Pray Love?
Kinda sweet, feel good movie. Nothing outstanding or ground breaking to be honest but overall I think is a good watch if you're looking for something "quiet". There's not a lot that happens here that's like exciting or wild but it's a good closed story.
My favorite is the scenery and the vibes. It just feels like I also want to venture into a country home near a beach and spend my time looking at the sunsets.
FYI: There's some sequences of nudity nothing too sexual.
